Knitting Circle

Wrinkled grey woman
Wanes even as she waxes, time
As balls of yarn, un-
Ravels as she
Spins.

Stories, multiple histories...
Crystal star-collared calico in
a patch of sun poised;
Ready to - Pounce – while one
Gold-rimmed eye languidly
Blinks.

The tail snaps;
Motion-blurred furplosion
paws and claws and -
The balls roll once again.

Somewhere a cat
Scratches in his böx -
and doesn't.

Possibly, a super-
Centenarian and her
Precious, have skeined
something revolving around
cosmology.
